The installation worked perfectly and also in the subsequent operation, everything went perfectly.
I want here but primary on a couple of things enter into me, unfortunately, did not like.
These are mainly:
Scanner performance
High ink cleaning interval
- The performance of the scanner I am unfortunately very disappointed. This is noticeable especially with checkered paper and thin pencil sketches. The boxes are barely recognizable as the pencil sketches. In general, the document is very light, so even issued overexposed my opinion, this is also when scanning photos that way.
This I can very well judge because I know several of my fellow students Dokumentenscanns. Since there is a very big difference to the Canon MX885 is he unfortunately can not keep up.
However, it can work around this problem where one does not scan the pages to scan documents but under under Photo. It allows the printer but not the one storing the file to be scanned as PDF but it goes only as JPG or TIFF permits. Here Canon could help out again with an update. But the files are still overexposed.
In addition, it is unfortunate that it is not possible with a multi-function device in this price class, edit the scans on the printer in terms of contrast, sharpness and brightness.
- Further falls the frequent cleaning of the nozzles on negative. This increases the consumption of the ink on the other is the constant wait until the printer is ready for operation is quite annoying. It seems to me before and it was again higher than my Canon IP4700.
However, since the ink prices of third party but are very low compared to other brands, this can be so I think but neglect.
- Otherwise, it is because black lacquer dust quite vulnerable.
- The color prints are not so brilliant and Farbtreu as with my Canon IP4700 but in my opinion for a multifunction device all times in order.
Summary:
Otherwise, the Canon MX885 meets all requirements. Positive is also still to be noted that when the switch is actuated and he really is off and draws no current.
Good multifunction printer, but unfortunately does not address weaknesses when scanning.
!!! Canon please an update to the scan in the photo setting, here I would like to save it as a PDF !!!
